Starting work on Apertium English to Kazakh
These notes are basically for Anel, Aizhan and Assem who have started to develop this language pair...
Installing what is needed
Operating System
Install a suitable GNU/Linux system such as Debian, Ubuntu, Mint...
Install build essentials, etc.
Open a terminal window and type
sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential g++ pkg-config gawk libxml2 \ libxml2-dev libxml2-utils xsltproc flex automake autoconf libtool libpcre3-dev \ cmake libicu-dev libboost-dev libgoogle-perftools-dev bison
enter your password and Wait till the packages are downloaded and installed.
If you don't already have a directory for sources, make one in your home directory and enter it:
cd ~ mkdir Source cd Source

This language pair uses the Helsinki Finite State Toolkit for Kazakh generation, so we need to install it, and its dependencies.
